Model Shops reopening on April 12th

With non-essential retail reopening on 12th April, it wouldn't be a bad idea to have shops confirm they are throwing the doors open on that date, and provide details of the times etc.

 

Basically, it's a good way to tell us you will be back and encourage modellers to get off their backsides, pay you a visit, and hand over some money!

 

We'd like to limit this thread to fact please - shop name, location etc. Discussion over whether model shops are a good idea etc. will be deleted to keep things tight.

Pontypool & Blaenavon Railway Shop.

 

01495 792263. Sadly, no website. 

 

Opening times are a bit wavy at the moment ( local condition (Wales ) but the team at the shop do a very good 'click & collect' service.  Parking here is always good (free ).

Wearing Face Coverings will still be a requirement. 

 

We continue with the PLEASE WAIT red light and the PLEASE COME IN green light - similar to a number of shops.

There's lots and lots of lovely new stock and all that's missing is YOU, the customer.

The Kernow Model Rail Centre branch at Guildford will once again open on 12th April for customers to enter and browse, as it was between the full lockdowns, rather than just click and collect.

 

The most exciting news is that, following the opening up of our brand new warehouse for the mail order side of the business that has been in seamless operation since Christmas, we are delighted on the 12th April to be able to open our Camborne branch for browsing customers for the first time since the very first lockdown in March last year! 

We have also taken the opportunity to refresh the inside of the branch with some brand new display stands and its looking great!

 

All will be subject to a limit to the number of customers at a time and browsing time depending on demand and course the usual rules regarding the wearing of face coverings will still apply.
